2000 150hp. My engine was creeping down on trim but it would hold the tilt. I went to check the fluid level (engine locked in the up position) and it was like there was too much in it. Some poured out. After that the engine will not tilt but it still will trim (smoothly) . Do I have an air pocket somewhere or what? I have tried to bleed it out. I still cannot add any fluid to it.

One of my O-rings on the trim was destroyed. I found pieces of it all over the inside of this unit.

Good deal PD! Did you do a complete teardown? I'm facing a similiar issue and need a strategy. I still gotta get the dang thing out from between the mounts!
